        No no no no. The distinction here is that he got *caught*. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 28, 11:36
      - I don't remember him being this dirty a player at nebraska. Did I just miss it? -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 28, 11:27 2
        
        I think he's working too hard to make himself a reputation he doesn't need. -- nm - David Nov 28, 11:36

- Started Skyrim friday. I really like this but very disappointed in archery and how it works...I miss my Fallout sniper rifle -- nm - Capstern Nov 28, 11:21 4
  - yeah, bows do work a bit different than rifles :) -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 11:24 3
    - Well I just meant that ranged weapon should be a little easier to target...maybe I am missing something but I shoot stuff once and then - Capstern Nov 28, 11:26 2
      - there are a couple archery perks that slow time down, but it is much trickier than a scoped rifle :) -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 11:29 1
        
        good to know. Hoping I am not crippled as a wood elf using 2h weapon and heavy armor (lvl 12) so far doing ok -- nm - Capstern Nov 28, 11:35
- I think my son is a Dark Elf - amoxy Nov 28, 11:20 1
  - I chose wod elf but archery sucks so far so now heavily armored with 2h weapon is fu so far -- nm - Capstern Nov 28, 11:22
- I'm a Khajit - the race does lend itself to sneak playing better. Trish plays as a Breton as they have inherent magic superior characteristics -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 11:01 5
  - Khajits are the ones that are basically Hello Kitty, right? -- nm - jingle pixie Nov 28, 11:03 4

  - Pentatonix for the win! -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 11:17 5
    - *hangs head, agrees* - TFox Nov 28, 11:23 4
      - Word. They've done everything but tell America to vote for them. -- nm - Jim Nov 28, 11:33
      - the Aires are extremely entertaining, but I'm just blown away by the musicianship of Pentatonix -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 11:25 2
        
        For me, the final 3 is 2/3 incorrect. Vocal Point and Afro Blue should both be in the finals. - Jim Nov 28, 11:36

volknelk, yeah, I've run into problems in Bethesda games when I become invincible - have you maxed out the difficulty? -- nm - crash davis Nov 28, 10:58 1

  - i just brought some mac and cheese for the vegetarian dish. my brother in law brought a take-out container for the leftovers - heh. -- nm - kare Nov 28, 11:03 3
    - My SiL's family has Costco bags of takeout containers on hand for family gatherings specifically for this purpose. - con_carne Nov 28, 11:09 1
      - that is pretty brilliant. BIL's was a Red Robin styrofoam container. -- nm - kare Nov 28, 11:27
    - Nice :)) guy knows a good thing obvie -- nm - And a JenBro in a Pear Tree Nov 28, 11:05
